  • Money on my mind so these haters in a way
    Having conversation with the paper every day
    I ain't talking short bread, girl with that magic cake
    Plus I spend it I can't take it when the lord takes me away
    With my lighter, with my lighter
    Hey sissi, fill my drink up
    Ain't no purple, ain't no take up in this red cup that I'm fucked up
    Staring at your body, god damn your sexy body
    I'm trey I came to play on, and use you as my hobby girl
    Seen so many faces in this unfamiliar cities
    Bright skylines got a nigga kinda dizzy
    They trying to take my spot well they gonna have to come and get me
    My crib is at the top, anybody rolling with me

    If I could I would bring the whole hood to the top of the world, with me
    Here's my world, for free
    Trying give you what you came to see
    If I could I would bring the whole hood to the top of the world, with me
    Is my world, for free
    Trying to get what you came to see.

    You say you're working harder and I swear that you're a liar
    They say they hard as me, but they never felt the fire
    If you're talking money, boy you preach into the choir
    And I be in her brain she can't think of none flyer for my nigga in the hood,
    Looking at these other niggas that I'm wishing they would
    'Cause they ain't no good,
    If I could I would reach out my hands
    Everybody that's suffering
    Push you down, get up again
    Play by my rules, and fuck the plan!
    Money on my mind saw these haters in a way
    Having conversation with the paper every day
    I ain't talking short bread, girl with that magic cake
    Plus I spend it I can't take it when the lord takes me away

    If I could I would bring the whole hood to the top of the world, with me
    Is my world, for free
    Trying to get what you came to see
    If I could I would bring the whole hood to the top of the world, with me
    Is my world, for free
    Trying to get what you came to see.

    Trying to get what you came to see
    That goes the world for me
    Trying to get what you came to see

    Yeah, lately I'm smoking more
    But still I'm focused more,
    A little day can see tomorrow
    I don't know for sure
    You who I wrote this for
    Hmm, oh you're dope for sure
    Oh yeah, you're raw, so get it cooking
    Let 'em know you're pure!
    I pray for this, pray for this
    So I'm made for this
    You niggas are just pop holes in the road that I paved for this
    Obama tried to turn this mother fucker round
    And look, they're trying to put that mother fucker down
    Women, please check for sun, more than stilettos
    And young girls, make this young niggas respectful!
    If I was your father, I'd never neglect you
    So a nigga like me probably never met you
    Pray some special, and I'm happy I met you
    But you really wanna know me I just wanna sex you
    After you wanna cuddle, I don't want, but I let you
    You made me promise, and I'm honest, try not to forget you!
    Bond growing stronger with the brothers that look up to me
    It's more important than whatever that they fuck with me
    Luckily my angel speak to god, like what's up for me
    My heart beat for the people who carry the love for me.
    Left my fellows in the past, you can't get in touch with me
    If he want it I give him cash, I do it reluctantly
    But that's my nigga, I'mma put it back upon his feet
    And is he far, he can still come right back to me.
    Wish I could take everybody, nigga! Writer/s: DARRYL D. COOK JR., JOHN STEVEN MCGEE, NAJJA MCDOWELL, TREMAINE ALDON NEVERSON
